Soon the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute will host Justin Trudeau. The smug Canadian prime minister will lay out his democratic socialist vision this Friday, as antithetical to Reagan’s as anything could be. Although tickets have already sold out, it isn’t difficult to forecast the speech. Where Reagan reduced government, Trudeau has increased it. Where Reagan unbridled the economy, Trudeau has tried commanding and controlling it.

But the leaders of the Reagan Library are either unaware of, or are totally unconcerned with those ironies.
